Due to the development of electric and hybrid vehicles, the trend has changed from hydraulic power steering system to electric power steering system (EPS). In this paper, design parameters are deduced through the structural analysis based on the finite element analysis for the intermediate shaft of the EPS on the market. By analyzing the design parameters, the structure design is improved to support the required high torque on the EPS. The numerical analysis is performed to obtain the improved design of the intermediate shaft model and the analysis results are compared with the existing model. It is noted through this numerical approach that the improved design of the intermediate shaft can be acquired the structural safety and high stiffness than existing model.

It is a fact that current engineering education is insufficient to cultivate engineers who can fulfill industrial demands. Engineering colleges and the government have expended much effort to develop new education model to overcome these shortcomings. The purpose of the present research is to formulate direction of engineering design education to cultivate talented engineers meeting engineering and industrial needs. We compared and analyzed Creative Design Project (3) (a core subject in engineering design) from the feedback of practising engineers, professors and students based on essential design technology factors and the educational achievement contents of ABEEK. The three essential factors of design technology which are prerequisites for the designers to implement design work were selected by surveying experts in the field of device design of cellular phone company. Moreover, educational purpose of the professors, educational achievement of the students, and educational direction of industry needs are deduced based on the three factors. It is also ascertained that Creative Design Project (3) meets most of the requirements of industrial design field by comparing and analyzing deduced results.

The world has faced with various environmental problems such as climatic change, global pollution, and depletion of natural resources. Conventional economic development continues not only to intensify the magnitude of the problems but also to damage growth potential of future generations. Therefore, recent manufacturers are highly required to accommodate themselves to sustainable development that aims at preventing the loss to the future generations. Moreover, the manufacturers are under heavy pressure from various environmental regulations. This paper proposes green bill of material (Green-BOM) which conforms to the environmental regulations to restructure eco-friendly manufacturing system. Green-BOM is useful for managing green product and process information to satisfy several environmental regulations by recording energy consumption, recycle rate, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), substance information, and so on.

This paper describes new methods to minimize the cutting time in zigzag milling operation of two dimensional polygonal surfaces. Previous works have been focused on mainly experimental approaches by considering some machining parameters such as, spindle speed, depth of cut, cutter traverse rate, cutter diameter, number of teeth, tool wear, life of tool, and so on. However, in this study, we considered two geometrical factors one by one in order to see the effect separately, which are the length of cut and the number of cutter traverse. In an N-sided concave or convex polygon, an algorithm has been developed which minimize the total length of cut. Also, a heuristic approach was used to minimize the number of cutter traverse.

In this study, the prediction on the quality of tools after coating process has been investigated. Under different coating conditions, cutting resistances have been obtained and analyzed with a tool dynamometer to provide optimized coating conditions. The optimized coating conditions Lhave been computed with the most effective factors found by S/N ratio of Taguchi method. To evaluate the influence of the factors on cutting efficiency through the minimum of number of experiment times, the way of neural network design using Taguchi method has been employed.

This paper proposes a procedure enabling the extraction of view-dependent triangular approximations from a height map. In general, procedures to approximate a height map use tree hierarchies. These methods, however, have a limitation in terms of accuracy, because they depend on tree hierarchy than terrain features. To overcome the difficult, we apply the simplification method for triangular meshes to a height map. The proposed procedure maintains full decimation procedure to support multiresolution. The maintenance of decimation procedure results in creation of the groups (trees), each of which consists of vertices that can be merged into one vertex (root node). As the groups have tolerance which is determined by some tests, they support the generation of view-dependent arbitrary triangular meshes.

Conceptual Modeling is the process of abstracting a model from a real or proposed system. It is probably the most important aspect of a simulation study. Relate works show that the elementary developers devoted little time to understanding how the systems actually worked, namely they didn't build appropriate conceptual model. Thus, the result of simulation is inconsistent because it depends on developer's competence. Although many researchers suggested various techniques enabling developer to build conceptual model, there were several limitations. In this study, to overcome the limitations of existing techniques, we proposed COMBINE-DES (COnceptual Model BuildINg framEwork using ontology for Discrete Event Simulation). The COM-BINE-DES supports expediting the conceptual modeling with Solution ontology generated by Domain ontology and Simulation ontology. Moreover, it provides consistent simulation result regardless of repeated modeling.

This research develops dispatching rule for a wafer FABs with dedication constraints. Dedication, mostly considered in a photolithography step, is a feature in a modern FABs in order to increase the yield of machines and achieve the advance of manufacturing technology. However, the dedication has the critical problem because it causes dedication load of machines to unbalance. In this paper, we proposes the dedication load based dispatching rule for load balancing in order to resolve the problem. The objective of this paper is to balance dedication load of photo machines in wafer FABs with dedication constraint. Simulation experiments show that the proposed rule improves the performance of wafer FABs as well as load balance for dedication machines compared to open-loop control based conventional dispatching rule.
